[eleshakys1]

[frennery]

miguel si se pone al español pero aun no existe un software que reconosca las letras al modo abc, solo reconoce los numeros. te recomiendo que por el momento lo uses en ingles para que puedas usar la letras tmbn....

[Rrichthe3]

haha, i remember when i first got this phone, i was so happy, now i got the g1.

[wesleyorazem]

the 2009 shadow ll is out now so get the new one :D

[miahchua]

i have this phone and it lags a lot... =(

[migueldriotis]

alguien me puede ayudar como ponerlo a español si necesito instalar de nuevo elwindows que alguien me diga como hacerlo necesito ponerlo a español

[IxYamikoxA]

This phone is pretty decent. It depends on what you're looking for, I guess. I don't need a full QWERTY keypad since I rarely text but I'd still like to see what windows mobile is like, so it's a nice medium for me :D

It's not the best, but it's not that bad xD even the battery life, it really isn't that great compared to others, but I usually charge it overnight at the end of the day, so it's all good ^^

[mahfuz2661]

i love your reviews

[kockgunner]

Yeah, this looks way cheaper than HTC's regular offerings. Even though this phone is aimed for the lower priced market, they could have done a better job IMHO.

[paleteroman5567]

how is the button hard to find? you hellen keller or sumthin?

[xXcrash2020Xx]

lol

[sacinahat456]

@paleteroman5567

[GreenBot08]

[KSUBOY15]

[KSUBOY15]

U like dick

[valtastic07]

how do you access the memory card? i've put it in the phone but i don't know how to figure out where it is in the phone

[paleteroman5567]

file explorer

[lj8qb]

the bandaid annoys me

[StarlightIntuition]

Do You Have To Pay Extra Each Month For Internet Service?

[asifall1102]

That phone looks like a pain...

[nsnicy]

C750?

[ucantdothis23]

IS THE WI-FI FREE?

[SEALBoy89]

You don't need a data plan to use the Wi-Fi, if that's what you're asking. You can connect the Wi-Fi to your home network and use that to browse the web.

[creds123]

not true. there are service providers for wi fi. that why they charge you at train stations hotels etc.

[girlsdrinkfeck]

wifi is just a type of connection , nothing to do with subscriptions or pay as you go deals

[azndeathlife]

yes

[skoolguy94]

I love it but my contract doesn't end until next year... dang it.

[submison]

I love this thing. I want it

[kimmyrocks11]

you should totally get it it;s very cool and it's only 40.00 get it go go !!!

[Bunnygirl808]

its sturdy but has bad battery life and is slow when you turn it on.

looks nice tho, doesn't it? haha

[darkangelhatesyou]

well my shadow has a good battery life and yea its a good phone and i took of the internet and i just use the wifi. the wifi works realy well. oh and i love the big screen .. and yea bye

[StrangeCharmer]

he has a band-aid on his thumb....

a result of extreme texting ?

[itzlikeham]

i have this phone, and its battery life is realllyyyy bad, like only 3 hours and it overheats.

[jjgonzalez81]

damn, i´ve a problem, a little one, the speaker doesn´t work, where can i find one for it????

[itzlikeham]

Complain to customer service, thats why my mom did to get a better battery pack thing. haha

They should send you a new one.

[nechirvan08]

naw sorry

[JackButtPr0ducti0ns]

i am getting this fone. it seems like a very good fone, epescially after i saw this

[sopfed]

Is there any way to completely disable all predictive text settings? I was messing around with one of these in a store the other day and I couldn't get it to my liking. I want to press the key with T and Y on it, and if I want a T I press once, if I want a Y I press twice. No suggestions, no completing my words, none of that. Is this possible?

[patrickncy23]

it suckz

[dn1074]

hello, i have this phone and i have a few questions. 1. I got a 2GB microsd card, and i can access it when my phone is connect to the notebook, but don't know how to access storage card files from phone? do you know? 2. can i sync it with IMAP account in outlook? if yes, how? please let me know if you know the answer, or if not, where else i could find it? thanks!

[shivo15kurd]

go to file explorer then click storage card

[dn1074]

shivo15kurd, thanks! i found it! now, do you know how to sync with IMAP account in Outlook? Thanks.

[jyellow865]

I ordered the copper Tmobile Shadow on November 18 and I was suppose to get in on Dec. 1. However, it seems to be on backorder and the t-mobile customer service claims that they do not know when it is going to ship out. Does anyone know anything about this?

[tanka256]

SOMEONE PLEASE REPLY i want this phone because it has a lot of the features i would like to have in a phone, but because its a smartphone i have a little bit of a concern with the bluetooth. Right now, i have a simple samsung phone with bluetooth. I love the fact that i can send and recieve pictures and ringtones through bluetooth. will this phone allow me to do that? more importantly, will it allow me to send ringtones from my samsung to this device? and how loud is the sound of the ringtones?

[sarkisskate]

ya bluetooth is great but sometimes it gets confusing when u wanna send stuff cuz there is so much things

i barley know how to work the bluetooth i always forget what i did to make it work

[mnhendrsn]

Cant find the bottons?

Wtf you Hellen Keller or somthin?

[yomama5567]

hahahaha that was NICE

[sgba17]

[tanka256]

NEED SOME ADVICE...

i cant rlly decide if i want this 1 or the samsung gravity. i knw a lot of ppl would say go wit the shadow becuz of how it looks n everything, and that the gravity looks really cheap, but heres the thing. i like different things about both and i'm torn lol. i like the keyboard of the gravity, but i'm not sure if it has changable faceplates, which i wnt. Then, i like how the shadow looks and the fact that i could customize it with faces(or covers), but no qwerty. any help??

[sarkisskate]

yea i got my shadow a few weeks ago and its great

the speakers are really loud

i got a 2gb memory card w/it

wi-fi is free and it has a lot of features

[frontmoney21]

[Starlove31]

[Amanya2009]

i just bought one today, how the hell do i add music to it?

[sarkisskate]

download them then connect the usb cord open folder

go to the storage device click and drag

before u do that you have to instal the cd that came with it when you do that it'll say the active thing after it gets it click explore then do it. =)

[DavidRooster]

shut up already. dude you keep saying bad things. phonedog is awesome.

[tbh104]

dont get this phone!!! please dont waste your money! it has broke 4 times already for me and i havent had it for a year!!!

[AliRedSox74]

how did it break?

[PaperChaser01]

maybe you're just dumb and wreckless cuz i've had it for a while and there's nothing wrong with it

[geekwad23]

Can this phone record movies?

cuz im thinking of buying it this week...but i dont liek the thing that happens wen u txt, like u type 2 letters of a word, n then it goes n types the rest or soemthing liek that... cuz i hate that... but if it dosnt hav that, then i mite buy it.. :x

[brownsugarbabe0823]

this guy is too picky about the phone. who cares if you cant customize the menu? the phone has everything you need and more...

[lakenya704]

I agree. He seemed really annoyed by that. lol

[19bannie19]

Your bouring shut the fuck up you nerd

[jeffxrawr03]

lmao. i know, i almost fell asleep no lie, but i am tired. he did make a good review on the LG lotus which my dad is getting for me though.

[ConfessionsBurn]

Is the phone going to be cheaper than 50 dollars? LOL. Man..

[yomama5567]

49.99 on contract

[xxraul1994xx]

this phone is great i just got it yesterday.best phone ive ever had

[richrichierichie]

[danny5211]

[gokuman5000]

[Saintsd53]

[turtlehobopirate]

haha i have this phone

[Lilmarkis13]

I love the band aid on your thumb XD lol

[togan07]

lol as soon as he said doohicky he lost all credibility. nneeexxxt review. Thank you come again

[mindf1ow]

LOL so true. How can you get hand cramps with this phone? He needs a phone with big freakin buttons on it lol.

[Davicemo]

cramps for old people

[AnDRoUgE1221]

come on guys the sidekick is really nice but its not that nice.

[mabmx413]

lol my thumb got lots of cramps.......

[malkito2891]

C'mon, no sidekick will ever be better then a smartphone with windows mobile on it.

[3124A]

i bet the wing is better even tho i hear it doesnt last long and the sidekick 2008 is also prob better

[cubanpete982]

Ur wrong, just cuz they have full keyboards doesnt mean they are better. I used to have this fone and it was great. The SK 2008 is krap and the wing if fugly. what fone do you have?

[pavel3g]

since the shadow has wifi, is the internet free?

[shadowpal2]

well yea basically anywhere there is wi-fi that is free...unless you know how to hack WEP/WPA protected ones. You can still use internet on it through T-Mobile but that's gonna cost.

[kewl192]

would it cost if i used internet explorer through the wifi on it?

[shadowpal2]

well no...it's because it's wifi - where ever you get the connection, your online and you basically can go on the internet.

[sarkisskate]

my first wi-fi connectivity was at subway

[sarkisskate]

no its free

[kewl192]

alright. thank you, T-Mobile is sending me this phone to replace my Blackberry Pearl. i hated the pearl

[Valyk126]

the internet is free on this phone?

[sarkisskate]

only wi fi unsecured or if u know the wep key

if you want internet every where you have to pay like 15 or 20 extra a month

[cracker2117]

how is this phone >?

[antiignorant]

this phone sucks...sorry

[cracker2117]

ok ive been sold im getting the blackberry pearl 8120 im going to get it in 6 days i cant wait :]....adn thnk u

[ShadowGRO5]

I had this phone and sold it...the phone itself looks pretty fancy, but thats about it.its slow and the quality of the videos sucks.I text and record lots of videos, this wasnt the phone for me i guess.

[UmmMahirah]

what a good phone for that???

[ShadowGRO5]

I bought the RIZR Z3.Its got a nice camera,its fast,small,and its not very expensive either.Theres so much to love about it.Its a very good phone for its price.

[Evolancer13]

I have that too and i cant agree more but i want to get a smartphone

[cracker2117]

ok im getting a new phone by the end off this month and im either going to get the t mobile shadow or the blackberry pearl 8120 so wich one should i get?

[g35crazy]

get the shadow i had a pearl i hated alot of its bizarre controls the shadow is much more easy to use plus the camera is better

[fefeboo09]

yea i had the pearl too and now i got da shadow sage it is better and the camera is clear onli thing the pearl had a flash camera but i still love my shadow

[haril007]

neither....windows mobile rocks hands down, but not with this phone : /

blackberries just suck these days

[fefeboo09]

you should get the shadow i had the pearl its garbage and it breaks easier the shadow is so much better and the camera

[jokersspades]

this would be the sexiest phone if it slided into a key borad :]

[cubanpete982]

then your looking for the htc pro. its made by the same company but it has a touch screen

[spade400]

i love the shadow i have it texting is so easy when you get usded to it i text without looking i used to have the sidekick lx but lost it and got the shadow i dont regret it at all :)

[DTr3T32421]

i hate these kinds of keyboards

[krystle923]

i have this phone it sucks!!!!!!!!!

[cantfnd]

soes it really suck!?! what dont you like about it..and what would you recommend?

[krystle923]

I recommend to update the shadow..i have to agree with thavyrus the battery dies very quick too and The wing =(

[GnarXcore04]

does anyone know if you can turn the led at the top left off... all this blinking is pissing me off lol

[everybodylovschocola]

everything is great but the headset thing. anyone who has it please tell me is it alright, or its horrible

[drummerboi621]

i like how that menu shit goes on

lol

[yomama5567]

should i get a blackberry curve or the shadow? i cant decide

[TimmyWhoa]

get the shadow.

[everybodylovschocola]

o please tell me , can you buy games on it

[masterj1200]

yes

[ddsgabo]

I'm a dental student and one of my patients brought to school, the guy is in IT and was very happy with the shadow. I asked the pros and cons of the phone and I was sold. I'm getting it on Tuesday!

[wwwaaasssuuuppp]

You know that they are coming out with the shadow 2 this fall, right?

[KMMPlanet]

but i bet itll cost a lot like too much like 400 or 300 and shadow is just 150 and they probably wont upgrade the shadow that much just color and stuff

[shdyslimm1]

any has problem with the lcd screen too dark when it is in "lock" and when it slided up the lcd screen does not lit up but still in it "lock" stage lighting.

[manmamman]

After my contract is over with US Cellular, I MIGHT get this phone and switch to T-Mobile unless there are other new phones that come out before.

[fh1mahfanzai]

this phone sux for wifi basically useless

[TimmyWhoa]

i thought it was alright.

[topdog17]

I use wi fi fine its fast and esy to connect too you just must be too dumb to set it up

[HeyItsMeJess]

im getting a new phone in 2 months and im deciding to get a shadow phone should i get it or no??

[tigerlily10101]

yes u should!!! im getting this one too! but im getting the dark brown one, not the green... so what color do u think you'll get IF u get it

"?"

[95rafii]

kidd.. yur right i want to buy this phone and im lokking into it and dis dude puttin ma new fav fone down to not buy it ..gettin me madd

[bschuske]

Are you retarded?

[UncleAndy814]

he sounds like he really doesn't like the phone

[appleipodsmike]

should i get this phone?

[MetroDNews]

Gross ass bandaid...

[tauhidah]

how could the buttons be so hard to use... its not for fucking baby what person with a fucking could possibly find that hard????

[acuradan623]

i was thinking the same thing, this dood pussy if hes complaining about not being able to push buttons

[havik03]

not if you use wifi

[opticorey]

couldn't they have found someone who didn't have a thumb wound to do this review?

[MyBrainIsMush]

... or someone who sounds a little more interested. either would be nice

[ValeTudo01]

does anyone know if these phones are able to use a microSDHC 8gb card? i have a 4gb in it atm and wanted to upgrade to a 8gb.

[soulseeker1978]

is a nice phone i have it but the battery sucks

[smallville902]

I have it too and i def agree!

[acuradan623]

i agree to but u gotta set thte backlighting to autotrurn off to the lowest time, i did it and it helped with battery life also disable the bluetooth and wifi when not in use

[ezra86]

nice bandaid

[Jadedmystery]

Does all those items really come in the box? Cause the Tmobile website only said that the charger, battery and handsfree head set come in. What about the USB sync cable and carrying case?

[cubanpete982]

Yes, every thing, a case, usb sync cable/charger, travelers charger, software, and a headset. It is all worth it and way easier than a qwerty keybord with 26 letter buttons.

[topdog17]

yes it all comes in the case, carrying case, head phones adapter, travel adapter , sync cable

[evobeatr]

This is just an AT&T Shine with WM6 on it.

[BD42KM29]

can you listen to mucis and text at da same time with the shadow like you can on da sidekick lx?

[masterj1200]

i dont c y not

[smallville902]

Yes. You can text and talk on the phone or text and listen to music..

[92fatback]

you can use the internet on this phone just by pluging in your phone to your computer

[masterj1200]

u can use it as a modem

[panchito713]

what do you mean

[masterj1200]

u have high speed internet right? u have a box right? at a tmobile hotspot u can use the shadow as that box

[monsta616]

can anyone help me, i need to know if your able to listen to the shadow while in an airplane does it has airplane mode?

[sonus911]

Yes, if you choose you can still listen to your mp3s and such while in airplane mode.

[monsta616]

how do i cut it on (airplane mode)

[ILBKW]

hes an idiot...."use this doohicky here if you want to add headphones"

[GregoryShutdown]

I do agree with you

[meboz67]

dash or shadow? im not sure

[APLACETOB]

but it on buzzer and shove it

[ArAtEuC]

good phone but slow as shit, im selling mine......it takes lagit 1 minute and half to turn on...crazy!!

[kissbutt79]

really!! i have one and its not slow for me.

[APLACETOB]

1.5 min? your lucky!

I have the dash, and it takes about 3 min to turn off, and 5-10 min to turn on and start working sort of smoothly.

It also took about 2 min to load the contacts! (the dash).

I dont have that much time to waste in my life, so I got the Blast of ebay.

then only thing I like about the comp phones is windows media player. thats the only thing.

[sonus911]

Aplacetor and Arateuc... That's way too long, maybe you have too many programs running at startup. Try either uninstalling some programs or doing a hard reset.

[jvilma51]

i love mine.

its an awesome phone, seriously, the XT9 is awesome. you just have to get used to it.

9/10.

i wish it was touchscreen though.

[jvilma51]

also, i wished it had flash for the camera.

[evolvethis]

I love this phone. I picked it over the Dash. I'm still having problems accessing the internet, but other than that it's great. Looks great and pad is perfect to text with. I never have to go back and fix my messages.

[dancehrtstopper]

luv mine

[Othecryman]

IS This The best HTC mobile???

pleas answer, i will have the best of the best ;) if anyone know, tell me? ^^

[sonus911]

The HTC Touch Cruise is the top of their line cell phone.
